Back In The USSR

Back in the glory years of Soviet Russia express lanes were reserved on Moscow's major roads for top officials and leaders of the Communist Party in the ZIL limousines. Those privileges came to a sudden end with the collapse of the USSR, but the London Olympics instituted the special lanes throughout the city for the swift transport of athletes and world politicians attending the Games. Anyone else will be hit with a 500 Pounds fine and that includes bicyclists and pedestrians. Watch out for the ZIL lanes. They are not for you.
